StorY of the InnocenT...
Man, I don't believe this stuff at all. What's going down, I mean. I was driving to work this morning. Work. I don't make much, it is enough, for my daughter and my wife and me. I guess we are lacking a lot of things.. I want my daughter to go to college, get a good job, so she's ok. I guess it's silly, she's so young, me worrying about her future.
Oh, I was saying. I was driving to work, and I saw some dude get shot. I mean, this guy walks right up to him and blows his face off. It was traumatic at the least, lemme tell you. But I got to thinking about it, and I realized that nearly everybody I know has had someone close to them murdered recently. And I hear about murders more in the news, it seems (I know they don't report them all). The town I live in, it's not a big town, but we have had a lot of people die here in the past six months. Before, almost nothing bad happened. But it's not just us, it's the whole country. Why, just last week my uncle was shot in Topeka. and the police said it was 'apparently gang-related.' That's what they've said about almost all of these crimes, either something to do with gangs or something to do with satanists. Somehow I doubt that's the whole story.
There also seem to be even more Christians knocking at my door trying to tell me something about end times. I really don't believe the whole end-of-the-world business, but all this activity makes a man wonder, and worry a little. I guess it all began to roll downhill when those schoolkids took guns to school and shot a bunch of people, what was it, '97? Yes, things started getting weird then. Remember that? Especially the second one, who shot the prayer folks. He had a bunch of guns and ammo, he planned to kill a whole bunch more people, apparently, but he didn't have the ability to hurt people that much, so he only got a clipful off before he cracked. You know, there are people that are so cold-blooded that they could do that -- take out a whole school or something and not feel any remorse. What do I think about at night? I think about whatifs.... what if somebody grouped all those cold killers together, gave them the means to achieve an end? What if the world really is gonna end? what if all that bible stuff comes true? I think about my daughter's future...
